Gamer's Pulse have reviewed The Temple of Elemental Evil, and have given the game a final score of 35 out of 50. This equates to 70%, for the less mathematically inclined, and places Troika's offering in the "Above Average" category. Here's what they said:

Temple of Elemental Evil’s greatest feat of originality is its alignment system. Before beginning your quest, you must decide whether you want your party to be lawful, true (will break law when necessary), or chaotic and whether you wish to be good, neutral, or evil. After making your decision, you must then choose from one to five members who will comprise your party. The kick here is that every member of the party must be in accordance with the alignment you originally chose. Even in a fantasy setting, this adds a bit of realism, as you cannot have both a psychotic ogre and an upright, noble knight in the same party. The game comes replete with a few created characters, but it’s also a ball to make your own. There are a plethora of choices to make in regards to character creation, including seven races, more than a dozen classes, and even the character’s favorite God. Unfortunately, the only feature missing from the creation process is appearance. It is a tad frustrating that you have no say in what style helmet your dwarven warrior wears or what color panties your Amazon princess prefers.
